From: John Cox <[log in to unmask]> Date: Tue, 28 Jun 2016 10:00:25 +0100 As a Brit who is still deeply despondent after the Brexit vote in the UK, I must endorse Outsell's summary of the problems and challenges facing my country, the EU itself and the world economy. It is an excellent informative piece. There is one area where Outsell's analysis is inadequate. This is the lack of political leadership in the UK at present. We have a Prime Minister who has effectively resigned. His successor will not be in office until early September at the earliest. And we have the main parliamentary opposition in total disarray with a leader under challenge, just at the time we need an effective opposition outlining a clear strategy for the country. With such uncertainty, volatility and disruption is inevitable. Interesting but demoralising times.

Regards, Ann **** June 24, 2016 - Outsell Insights Leigh Watson Healey Chief Analyst, Outsell SPECIAL ANALYSIS: Brexit and What It Means for the Information Industry The Brexit referendum results have delivered a political and economic earthquake that will rock Britain and Europe and have repercussions around the world and for all parts of the information industry. [LOTS OF SNIP] STM The immediate implications will be around UK Research and Development (R&D) funding. Brexit will leave a significant hole in R&D funding as the UK’s research institutions have been incredibly successful in competing for European research funds. They account for a third of the UK’s research funding (see Insights, 26 May 2016, UK R&D at Risk in the Event of a Brexit). The leading players in science publishing have been German (Springer), Anglo-Dutch (Elsevier) and Anglo-US (Wiley). Brexit is likely to lead to a reconcentration on Continental Europe.
